Pokémon Go February Community Day Stars: Karrablast and Shelmet

This Community Day features Karrablast and Shelmet, appearing more frequently in the wild. Keep your eyes peeled for their shiny variants! The real reward, however, lies in their evolutions. Evolve Karrablast (anytime between the event start and February 16th, 10:00 p.m. local time) to obtain an Escavalier knowing the powerful Charged Attack, Razor Shell (35 power in Trainer Battles, 55 power in Gyms and Raids). Similarly, evolving Shelmet within the same timeframe grants you an Accelgor with the Charged Attack Energy Ball (a hefty 90 power in all battle types).

A Special Research event offers encounters with Karrablast and Shelmet featuring special Dual Destiny-themed backgrounds, plus a Premium Battle Pass and Rare Candy XL. A Timed Research event follows, lasting a week after the main event. Log in during Community Day to unlock tasks rewarding encounters with these Pokémon and their unique backgrounds.
